Dipole question: If I cut a dipole for 80 meters, 40 meters and 30 meters and connect them all to the same balun, would they at some point resonate on the correct frequencies with some tweaking? ____

Larry: My Novice class antenna in 1966 was just such a combination of wires, except mine had a 20M dipole rather than 30 M (we didn't get 30M as an Amateur band until 1979.) You are correct in that y

And, if you have a tuner that can tune, say, 2.5:1 or 3:1, you don't have to do any pruning at all. They're dipoles, so they're pretty broadband, and if the resonant frequency drifts to 6.9 MHz from

My 160,80 and 40m dipoles are at 45ft, with the widest angle possible between dipole legs. As Bill says, this system works very well. Mine has almost 1:1 SWR on all three bands. Check out all the oth

I'm using a tri-band V, that has two Vs. One is cut for 80 & the other is 20/40. It's coming down, all the parts are here :-), in favor of this one: http://www.cebik.com/gup/gup5.html This is working

One year at our club Field Day operation we made one with wires for 160/80/40/20/15/10. Theoretically the 40 would have taken care of 15 also, but we were having fun adding wires! :) I think we used

I also have 80 and 40 meter inverted vees are right angles. The also load quite nicely on 30M. I thought they played well on 30M until I compared them to a vertical. The vertical beat the vees by a c

Interesting. Certainly comparison to some other known antenna is significant. I've compared mine to a 30M dipole that's much lower. The high 80/40s both play much better. I'd be happy to try comparat

My inverted vees are only at a 60 foot apex, that probably explains the difference. Rick N6RK _______________________________________________ _______________________________________________ TowerTalk

One thing you could do to minimize RFI and electrical noise is to put all your electrical wiring in steel conduit. It adds a bit to the cost of construction, but it's money well spent. When I bought
